Hello there. I'm having some problems with absolute values when they contain multiple "abs" operators and some other numbers outside the "abs"-es.
For example:
[tex]\left | x+2 \right | - \left | x \right | > 1[/tex]
If i check it for the positive scenario, the result is true for all x-es.
[tex] x+2 - x > 1 [/tex]
I can't conceptually see how to arrange the equations for the second scenario.
I've tried the following
[tex]-x-2 < 1 + x [/tex]
but that didn't give the right result. The correct result is -1/2<x
